"Rafael was great - he fixed our front door knob and lock, replaced another door handle, and our towel bar. He worked us into his busy schedule and came by on a day that was best for me. Rafael picked up parts he needed at Home Depot after assessing what we needed, and efficiently completed all three jobs."

"We hired the team to help us renovate a home before we moved in. They worked tirelessly to complete the project within a month so we could move in ASAP. Most of the home was redone and it came out amazing. We can not thank them enough!!"

"Aldo and his team are, hands down, the best in the business! Aldo is a detail oriented professional who handled our complete kitchen remodel beginning to end. Not only did he deliver on exactly what we wanted ( i am absolutely in love with my new kitchen!!!) he ensured that every step in our kitchen remodel was completed in a timely manner, despite unexpected set backs. If you have done renovations before you know how hard it is to stick to a schedule, but Aldo and his team made sure that they communicated any set-backs with us, AND they managed to finish my kitchen remodel in time! Bravo! I highly recommend you hire EA Development LLC for any and all home projects. You will not want anybody else doing work on your house, after you get the chance to meet Aldo and his awesome team! I already booked them for my bathroom remodel, and will book them for all my other projects!!"

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

Yes, barn doors can be too heavy, although the limitation is usually imposed by the mounting hardware you buy and not your home’s framing, unless you’re building an unusually wide door. To keep the weight down, you can opt for 1-by material rather than 2-by material, and choose a softwood like pine rather than a hardwood like maple or oak. Check the weight limits on your mounting hardware, and always attach your door track to studs rather than to drywall anchors.

You can use a variety of wood to build a barn door, but the most common options include 1-by boards and 2-by boards for the backing and the decorative boards on the front of the door. Softwoods like pine will save you some money and should hold up well, while hardwoods like maple and oak will stand up to more wear and tear. You could also build the backer out of plywood to minimize the cuts you need to make. Whatever you decide on, make sure the width of the wood is compatible with the mounting brackets you buy.

This answer varies based on where you are, but most states require that all homes are greater than 320 square feet. Remember that four walls are not the only requirements—windows, closet space, minimal ceiling heights, and indoor air quality are also factors. Each state and municipality differs, though, and as some don’t consider tiny homes permanent shelters, you’ll need to check to ensure you aren’t violating any local or state laws with your build.

The time it takes to build a shed heavily depends on the type of shed you buy. A prefab shed can be built in 4 to 8 hours, while a custom shed will be built off-site over the span of 2 to 5 days. It then takes a few hours, depending on the location, to move the finished shed to its final location.

Depending on your needs, you may find a storebought pole barn is a much less expensive option than a custom-built one. You can find pole barn kits from big box retailers starting at $11,000, but you will be limited when it comes to size and add-on features. As long as you have the necessary skills, you can save on labor costs by doing it yourself; but there are a lot of different skill sets you would need, and mistakes during the building process can lead to excessive repair bills later.
